Caputo & Co SS2015 Collection

New York based designer Alex Caputo shows off his Spring/Summer 2015 collection at his Hell’s Kitchen studio. Inspired by a recent trip to the island of Bali, Alex provides a tropical flavor full of blues, greens and yellows. The collection consists of a variety of unisex bracelets, belts, bags and other accessories. For this season’s bags, the designer uses strong, waxed canvas coupled with Vachetta leather; known for pleasing patina after some use. They come in messenger, tote and luggage styles; all with South American/Balinese influences. A notable design in this year’s collection is the unique zig-zag pattern; made to symbolize a body of water. The patterns can be found in blue, green, yellow and orange hues throughout Alex’s tote bags, bracelets and belts. Set to land February 2015, find them at Caputo & Co, Barneys, J.Crew, Nordstrom and other retailers.
